The GeoTools team is pleased to announce the release of GeoTools 14.3:

This release was made by Andrea Aime (GeoSolutions) in conjunction with GeoServer 2.8.3.GeoTools 14.3 is the latest stable release of the 14.x series and is recommended for all new projects.

Fixes and improvements:

Solved a potential deadlock between ReferencingFactoryFinder and BufferedCoordinateOperationFactory, which might trigger when the system is under load

Fixes in SLD multifont support

Fixed in the new fast GML 3 encoder path, which was not properly encoding pure geometry collections, and data with 3d coordinates

Fixed WFSDataStore failing to start if some numeric params are provided as string, and disabled the complex feature version of it, which was errouneusly taking over the simple feature version (resource to complete the complex feature one wanted)
